The area of the highway where the crash occurred, near Windermere Road, was closed for several hours as a collision reconstructionist attended the scene. The stretch of road has since reopened.

“Our thoughts are with the victim’s loved ones at this difficult time,” police added.

An investigation is ongoing.
